If you didn't have a problem with the internet then you would never have heard of this site :confused:


Anyway I scored high :rolleyes:

[bubbadog]

Um, let's just say my score was higher than Ian's :blush:

[mackerel]

Bit disappointing... only 57 for me??? :D

[BigBen]

I would not download and install Java Virtual Machine so I score zero :) which is only about 100 out

I was very suprised at my low score..61. Guess I'm ok and can keep my internet habits just the way they are then!

[Ragnarog]

Erhhmmr....I dont even know how to answer something like this:
How often do you find that you stay on-line longer than you intended?
1 = Rarely
2 = Occasionally
3 = Frequently
4 = Often
5 = Always


I have no intention to stay "off-line" at all so...Im always connected.

How often do you check your e-mail before something else that you need to do?
1 = Rarely
2 = Occasionally
3 =Frequently
4 = Often

Well, there are sometimes other things I need to do online before I check my e-mail but...:doh:

and:
How often does your job performance or productivity suffer because of the Internet?
1 = Rarely
2 = Occasionally
3 = Frequently
4 = Often
5 = Always
Well, I work with I-net and computers so it is my job, hardly suffer because of it that is !

and:

How often do you become defensive or secretive when anyone asks you what you do on-line?
1 = Rarely
2 = Occasionally
3 = Frequently

Well: Yes, I get angry at my boss when she sighs that I surf to much privately :D

How often do you block out disturbing thoughts about your life with soothing thoughts of the Internet?

Life outside Internet ?, is there !??? I didn't know !??? Tell me more!? http://www.ninjamicros.com/vbulletin/images/smilies/rofl.gif

How often do you find yourself anticipating when you will go on-line again?
1 = Rarely
2 = Occasionally
3 = Frequently
4 = Often
5 = Always

Well I do have some withdrawal syndromes when I have to leave work and go home and I wont be on line for almost a hour...terrible thought *huh*

How often do you fear that life without the Internet would be boring, empty, and joyless?
1 = Rarely
2 = Occasionally

I think I heard someone talk about something like "a Real Life thingy" but I would also guess that it is totally overestimated ;)

[Evolution]

Ah well, I recieved a total of 14, and choose "does not apply" for this that I never do :P

[bubbadog]

OK, Rids (the overachiever) outscored me, so I feel better now. :D

[Jules]

My score was 47....but then I had to answer lots of questions with rarely or occassionally for things *I* don't see as a real problem....

For me..it's a people thing... If I had my favorite persons with in reach..I'd not need to be here at all :)

[CyberdynSystems]

My score was the same as BigBens ,.. WinXP won't LET me download the latest Java virtual machine that all of sudden sites I've been visiting for years and have not changed seem to require as far as IE is concerned.............

[BigBen]

Hi CyberdynSystems,
I could download it but chose not to .... I do not need anything to tell me I spend to much time online SHE WHO MUST BE OBEYED DOES THAT :D
